“Defund the FBI” trended on Twitter as news that the FBIsearched the former president’s Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, FL, unannounced on Monday, made its rounds on social media.
The search comes as political figures accused Donald Trump of taking classified documents from the White House, the Associated Press reports.
As news of the search broke, many Republicans took to Twitter and expressed that the GOP should dissolve the organization.
Rep. Lauren Boebert of Colorado and Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia were among the many people that expressed the same sentiments.
In a now deleted Tweet, Boebert expressed:
The GOP majority must defund all forms of tyranny throughout Biden’s government @FBI
Greene tweeted:
Conservative journalist Todd Starnes stated the “FBI” had been “weaponized” and should be “dismantled.”
A few people with a different opinion found it hypocritical, considering many who tweeted about defunding the police were champions of “back the blue” during the George Floyd protests.
One person tweeted:
Another person said:
Donald Trump gave a statement and stated in part:
Nothing like this has ever happened to a President of the United States before.” He also referred to the raid as “a dark time.
Roomies, what do y’all think?
